Oamaru HarbourOamaru is a gorgeous harbour town centrally located on the South Island’s east coast 3 hours south of Christchurch or 90 minutes north of Dunedin. Visitors can explore museums, shops and galleries within some of New Zealand’s best 19th century architecture. With one of the country’s oldest public gardens, two penguin colonies, four golf courses and many walking and cycling trails there are plenty of opportunities to experience nature at its best.
 
Drive the famous Waitaki Valley from Oamaru and stop a while and discover Omarama - "The place of light"(a reference to its extraordinarily pure and clear sky, which make for fantastic star gazing).  Omarama is friendly, beautiful and perfectly located at the junction of Highways 8 and 83.  Based here you can experience Omarama’s unique local attractions, visit NZ’s iconic tourist attractions, the Mount Cook National Park and the new Ahuriri Conservation Park.  You can enjoy the Seven Lakes, spot rare Black Stilts and visit Penguins.  For gold medal trout fishing, gliding, biking or hiking Omarama is a Mecca.  Step away from the stresses at the famous Hot Tubs Omarama, where you will be immersed in pure mountain water with the beautiful Upper Waitaki/Mackenzie Country scenery all around you.
